I’m not sure I understand how I could use polling in this case. Would I just keep sending requests to the endpoint to see if there are any new messages sent or something like that?

Never really thought about it! Thanks, will take a look

Yeah I was thinking about EC2 as I’ve used it before for another project. Wanted to see if there are any other options just in case.

Will take a look at that, thanks!

Yep, saw another user mention this as well. I never knew this was possible, makes things so much easier haha.

I haven’t checked Kbin’s API documentation, but I assume (and hope) there is a post API endpoint.

edit: Just checked and it seems like you’re only able to do GET requests at the moment (link to docs). Will be waiting for updates from @ernest in this case.

I don’t think it has copyright implications, as the other user has shown, unless it’s some original work. I wouldn’t mind the posts on the Fediverse mentioning the original authors on Reddit and even linking back to the post just in case.

I don’t mind doing it manually (I was planning to do it for now anyway), but it would be nice to have an automated process for that. Plus, I don’t think Reddit will ever allow content migration to Fediverse, considering they were censoring stuff related to Kbin/Lemmy a few days ago…

Don’t platforms like Facebook or Instagram have detection against web scraping and they ban you really fast for that or something similar? I’d imagine Reddit would have some protection against that as well, no?
